Hey everyone! I noticed that in a lot of post or discussion, people keep referring to this game as dead ? As far as I am aware, it’s still one of the most popular games in the world.

    Weak updates that majority do not find appealing, 50% less players than during it’s peak, longer queue times because of it, Behaviour Score issues, more smurfs then ever because of it. Game is not dead but slowly heads that way, in my opinion this diretide update does not attract new players because it adds even more complexity, and current players find it artificial.

    Player base decreasing and it’s far cry from it’s peak, game development is in stalemate and overall patches feel rushed and well though-through. Long are the days of pre-7.** patches, when the game felt balanced and you could actually have viable 80 hero pool.

    It’s not dead. But it consistently lose more players than gain new ones.

    It’s a stupid meme that turned into a toxic circlejerk

    Game is fine. People are dying inside.

    People usually call a game dead if they suck at it then quit.

    Because a lot of gamers are children or manchildren and can’t accept that others might be enjoying a game that they are not. And calling a game “dead” somehow justifies their reason to not play it.
